Horse Care Visits
What are Horse Care Visits and how do they support you?
Horse Care Visits are personalised, reliable check-ins designed to care for your horse(s) when you can’t be there — without compromising on routine, welfare, or standards.
What Does a Typical Horse Care Visit Look Like?
Horse Care Visits are ideal for owners seeking support with their day-to-day care routine, feeding, water checks or refills, and general welfare checks — while knowing their horse(s) are being cared for attentively and responsibly. Real-time updates are included with every booking!
While ‘In Her Horse Era’ provides a consistently high standard of care, each visit is fully customisable to suit your routine and the individual needs of your horse(s).
How This Service Works
When you require a Horse Care Visit, simply fill in the form below (at the bottom of this page). Here, you’ll select the services you require for your visit, and within 24 hours you’ll receive a Uniquely Customised Quote based on what you require for your Horse Care Visit/s.
Each Horse Care Visit starts at $50, giving you 9 care points to spend on the care your horse needs. These points allow you to choose the services that best support your horse’s routine and needs.
If additional care is required beyond the included points, extra selections can be added to your booking at a clear, additional cost.
Before any Horse Care Visit begins, you will have an onboarding call to discuss finer details of your Horse Care Visit, while some bookings will qualify for an on-site onboarding visit, to ensure that the service is delivered with the highest level of care and attention to detail.
On the day of your Horse Care Visit all services will be undertaken efficiently and with attention to detail. Once the Horse Care Visit is complete you will receive an update (a text message sent straight to your phone). If there are any concerns during your Horse Care Visit you will be contacted immediately.
Your Visit, Your Way
General welfare and water checks (for automated water sources) are included as standard. From there, you can use your points to choose services like feeding, rugging, turnout, or other care tasks — depending on what suits your routine. This system keeps visits flexible and transparent, while ensuring your horse receives consistent, thoughtful care.
While some owners want all the bells and whistles, some want just the necessities… both work! You get to customise your visit, your way.

“Sophie is wonderful to have caring for our horses. When I need to leave early for work, I know they’ve been checked, fed, and are comfortable for the day. She’s reliable, attentive, and always lets me know if anything isn’t quite right. Her care gives me real peace of mind, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”
— Tania Carey, Oakbank SA
“Thank you Sophie for taking care of our equine family while we were away. They were spoilt rotten with treats and love. Your attention to detail with their body checks were second to none. Thank you again.”
